Build Your Skills in One of the Region's Most Diverse Cath Labs

Some cardiovascular technologists spend years seeking exposure to advanced procedures.

At PeaceHealth Southwest Medical Center, you'll find it every day.

As a regional referral center serving Southwest Washington and surrounding communities, our Cath Lab offers a level of procedural diversity that keeps experienced technologists engaged, challenged, and continuously growing. From interventional cardiology and structural heart cases to vascular interventions, neurovascular procedures, and cardiac device work, you'll encounter a wide range of cases that expand your expertise and sharpen your clinical judgment.

But what truly sets this team apart is the partnership.

For professionals who enjoy learning, collaborating, and working at the top of their license, this is an opportunity to join a Cath Lab where growth never stands still.
